this is my favourite version that is done by LC on the linden tree. THE SENTIMENTS ARE PORTRAYED and sung very appropriately...THANK YOU for this great effort
At the well before the gate There stands a linden tree. I dreamed in its shade Many sweet dreams. I cut in its bark So many words of love; In joy and sorrow. I was always drawn to it. I must travel on foot today by the tree late at night. Even though it was dark I closed my eyes. And the branches rustled as if they were calling me Come here young man Here you find your rest. The cold wind blew straight into my face. The hat flew away from my head. I did not turn around. Now I am many hours away from that place And always I hear the rustling You find the rest there. Now I am many hours away from that place And always I hear the rustling You find the rest there.
